Views of the NanoCollege expansion

Following Tuesday’s announcement, the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering has passed along renderings of its ongoing expansion — a project that will house a coalition of companies that includes Intel, IBM, Samsung, GlobalFoundries and TSMC.

We learned Tuesday that the state will pay for the building — $250 million borrowed by Empire State Development Corp.; $100 million from the New York Power Authority and NYSERDA; and $50 million from the Assembly capital projects fund.

A few weeks back, I posted renderings of the project (the link is here) from the website of EYP Architecture and Engineering. The new images are similar, with some modifications. They also seem to include just the first-phase building, rather than the complete expansion.

The photo above shows the north side of the structure — the view you’ll get from Washington Avenue Extension when the roadway is relocated. For good measure, I threw some current construction photos into the gallery below. They were taken by the TU’s Phil Kamrass.
